Some of our readers have been with us since the very beginning. Some of you have been with gaming for even longer. Others of you are brand new to this gaming thing, and need a bit of an education when it comes to the older games. This weekly feature will pit your wits against your memory as you remember the good times of yore, and the bad time of course.
Each week we will feature a screenshot of a classic game from various platforms and you get to guess the title. Then next you get a noddy badge and I give a short history lesson about the game in question.
I will also post a small cropping of a screenshot from a more recent news story on the El33tonline website. This will see how up to date you are on your news and how much attention you are paying every week.
So, lets not digress too much longer.
Classic Screenshot
Today’s classic screenshot is certainly a classic. I honed my gaming skills on this one.
News Cropping
This is a cropping of a rather sad news story. I hate bad news.
If you know the answer or answers, feel free to comment below. Or be sneaky and put off your mates by guessing wrong on purpose.
Till next time!

OMG i was only three years old when that game was released. Haven't played it at all.
Hmm not sure about the bad news. Most probably a game delay. Looks like max payne 3 maybe.
screenshot 2 look like dooms graphics
I'm not sure about screenshot 2, will sit and think about that one for a bit, but screenshot 1...OMW that is awesome. That's Maniac Mansion. I actually have that game on my Tablet tight now with its sequel: Maniac Mansion2: Day of the Tenticle.
OK, I thought about it and I got an answer to the second screenshot.....its Max Payne 3 as the game was delayed. But I don't see it as a bad thing, as some good games is coming out in march.
I have no idea on either o_O
I loved that you could play the full game of Maniac Mansion on a computer in Day of the Tentacle.
Dang...
Day of the Tentacle is one of my favorite games of all time. I think I even showed the game at the last DBNGamers meet-up running on my tablet via ScummVM
Hahahah...I cut my teeth on Maniac Mansion. Played both the PC and (the inferior) NES versions! what an awesome memory there!! :D
